It is with the utmost delight and no small amount of profound relief that I announce that the next three October Daye adventures have been acquired by DAW Books. That takes us all the way to thirteen, a benchmark I dreamt of but never thought I'd really reach.

The next three books are:

The Brightest Fell
Night and Silence
When Sorrows Come

(For the curious, the titles this time are from "Macbeth," "A Midsummer Night's Dream," and "Hamlet.")

I am...I am over the moon. This gets us through some really major story beats that I've been really looking forward to, and moves us toward the conclusion of as "act two" of the whole series (act one officially concluded with The Winter Long). There are two more books to come before I start on this new set, A Red-Rose Chain and Once Broken Faith, and having the security of knowing the story will go on is just incredible.

Thank you, DAW, for having faith in me.

And thank you all, for reading.

(Comment amnesty is ON, ye gods and little fishes.)

YEEEEEHAAAAAAAAAAAW!!!! So happy for you, and so excited for me. I read each new Toby book as slowly as possible to make it last, and I always turn the last page with both deep satisfaction and deep regret that I have to wait months for the next installment.

Do you suppose the conga rats are related to the Aeslin mice somehow?

I asked the same question earlier this week and her response was "several."

Squeeeeeeeee, more Toby books! I am very very excited to see what's coming! Plus, the titles of books 9 and 10 carry infinitely more meaning now that I've finished The Winter Long, and I'm even more excited to see them now.

Congrats on getting this far, and best of luck on what's to come!

Fantastic news! We can't have enough of Toby.

When Sorrows Come sounds ominous though...
